Summary

Moriah, Missouri, along the TR-Panther Creek. With a height of 25 feet and a storage capacity of 54 acre-feet, the dam serves primarily for fire protection, stock, and small fish pond purposes. Despite being categorized as low hazard potential and not currently regulated by any state agencies, the dam plays a crucial role in water resource management in Harrison County.

The dam, constructed with a buttress core type and an unlisted/unknown foundation, covers a surface area of 4 acres and drains a 36-acre watershed. While the dam's condition is currently unrated, its inspection frequency and emergency preparedness measures are yet to be determined. With no spillway and limited structural information available, there is a need for further assessment and risk management planning to ensure the safety and reliability of Leazenby Lake Dam-Sec 15 for water resource and climate enthusiasts in the area.

Overall, Leazenby Lake Dam-Sec 15 represents an essential water control structure in the region, providing vital support for fire protection, agriculture, and recreational purposes. As interest in water resource management and climate resilience grows, it is crucial to monitor and maintain the dam's integrity to safeguard its functionality and mitigate any potential risks associated with its operation.

Condition Assessment

Satisfactory
No existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
Fair
No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action. Note: Rare or extreme event is defined by the regulatory agency based on their minimum
Poor A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency. Investigations and studies are necessary.
Unsatisfactory
A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
Not Rated
The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Not Available
Dams for which the condition assessment is restricted to approved government users.

Hazard Potential Classification

High
Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
Significant
Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environment damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
Low
Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
Undetermined
Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.
Not Available
Dams for which the downstream hazard potential is restricted to approved government users.
